I’m so sorry you have been going through this. I can’t imagine a decision like this is easy and no one wants to see their kids have to go through this. Have you talked to him about leaving? Maybe threatening or even taking that time away would wake him up and help him come to his senses? Marriage isn’t easy especially when the couple can’t seem to agree on the important things, like money. I hope things work out for the sake of your happiness as well as the children’s. Don’t let your mom cosign anything. Because if your husband doesn’t pay for the truck then your mom could end up losing everything she has. My dad always warned me to never, ever cosign for anyone.

Oh Please please do not allow your mom to co-sign for anything… If he cant get it by himself, then he needs to figure something else out. He cant be so greedy.

I realize that you dont want the children in a divorced family, however, at this point in time, it honestly may make THEM happier too. If they sense you are upset or stressed, etc, they will start feeling that way too. You have to step back and think about everything…. Ask yourself: Will this EVER get better??? The answer is probably going to be No, because unfortunately this has been going on for far too long.
